A handy engineering student who has a great love of learning and the world! I'm generally cheery in demeanor and talkative. I know a weirdly large amount of technological stuff because I like learning how things work. I also love telling stories. I must emphasize that I love telling stories. However, I do not like most sea food.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel by biking, which happens to be a tad bit slower than driving so I often need to travel over a series of days if I plan on going far. I figured Couchsurfing might offer me a chance to meet interesting people and travel the distances I've always wanted to.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Went ziplining in Sara Piqui in Costa Rica. The entire trip was honestly one of the most amazing experiences I've ever had.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm good at math, physics, and technology in general. I can explain how things work. I love telling and hearing stories, specifically fun and weird stories, they're always the best. I've always wanted to learn a number of odd ball practical skills, from neat sewing tricks, to ways to survive in the wild.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm handy and can help out. But I also love intellectual conversation and thought provoking conversation as well as discussing ideas. I figure the best kind of symbiosis is learning. Teach and be taught by stories of experience, knowledge and experience. And no matter where you go take those lessons with you.
